Should I purchase a Range Rover Evoque?

I have the credit and the money to lease one, here is my delimma, I own a 2017 Honda fit that i'm upside down in, i owe 18500 and the car is literally worth 9500.

I pay 450 dollars for a car that sucks because of this because i traded in another car and got upside down, the people at the dealership didn't tell me i was young and dumb.

I own two cars, a Chevy Cruze and a Honda Fit
I purchased a Chevy for my mom to work initially but then i liked it and we switched. Well she banged up my honda fit and now its not worth much. Its got 35k miles on it and I feel like I should trade it in NOW while its worth what its worth. At-least ill have a range rover. Heres the bad part, I have like 8 thousand saved up in total. I can put the down payment of 5k but my lease payments will go up to 700, which i can afford because I can reimburse myself from my business for my business percent usage of the car- which i'm not able to now because of me being in a finance loan instead of a lease. I figure ill just buy the car or get a loan for it after the lease.

I love range rovers and i take care of my cars. I have never been into an auto accident.

I live in Los Angeles, and I have saved money to own a home but i'm 22 and that will be a while till i can own a home so i figure just start small buy me a nice car. Atleast ill get rid of this honda fit everyone looks things i dinged it up but i didn't.

I went to apply today and it was not denied the bank just closed while i was there.

Added (1). So What should i do? Pay the money out my savings to get away from this car or buy the car out or what i don't want this car so why keep paying 450 i rather pay 700 for something I want that i can write off

Buying a car for my girlfriend under condition of payment notarized by public notary?

Recently my girlfriend of three year s car went out. She has no credit score and subsequently can't get a loan to purchase a new car. I have a good savings portfolio and could buy a new cheaper car outright (thinking Honda Fit or something). However while I trust her, trust only goes so far and I don't trust her quite that much.

Anyways, my thought to remedy this situation is to purchase the vehicle in my name and allow her to make payments directly to me for the amount of the loan payments. I would have this notarized by a public notary that she would agree to pay however many payments it would be on x day of each month for x amount of money and following the conclusion of the last payment, I would sign the title over to her.

To protect both myself and her - In the event that she knew she was to miss a payment I would have an addendum added so that if she were going to miss a payment that she would submit in writing in advance and I would acknowledge such. In the event of failure to this term she would lose all interest in the vehicle.

Would this be a viable option? Can a notary be used in this way or am I mistaken? Would I be able to take legal action in court should she attempt to stop payment?

At any point in time I could purchase the vehicle outright if I so desired and resell it if she did burn me, but I might lose some money due to devaluation.

Lastly, I know about co-signing, but I won't do it simply because I don't trust her with my credit score.

Added (1). Also as related information, she would be insuring the vehicle herself. I wouldn't be adding her to my plan or anything.

Would I regret selling my 1985 VW Golf to buy a 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage?

A few years after being married, the wife and I got this '85 Golf diesel. For the past 6 years it has not really given us any problems, except a faulty CV joint that had me thinking the transmission had gone out when it hadn't and a couple leaks that were easy to fix. It also gets great fuel mileage, over 50mpg. We drive a lot.

It's a little rough looking and has no AC system, but it's the perfect car for our budget. We make around $2,000-2,500/month after taxes, so at 20 percent, that gives us $400-500 for car expenses. With about $100-150 in fuel and $100 in insurance, that leaves us with $150-300 per month extra.

We had been wasting that money on other things, like other vehicles. But now we want to have just one car and use that money for that car's maintenance and improvement. I was thinking of saving some up, painting it, saving, reupholstering, saving, new muffler, etc. Maybe I'd even work up to having the money for a new engine or transmission if that ever became the case.

However, I'm also throwing around the idea of just selling the Golf and getting a car with a payment but that already looks nice and has AC. But according to Edmunds TCO, $400-500/month limits me to a car like a used Mitsubishi Mirage. Even a used Toyota Yaris or Prius C or Honda Fit may be just outside of my price range according to Edmunds, although perhaps close enough I could deal with it. But would I be kicking myself in the rear end if I gave up the ol' Golf for a newer car?
